ABOUT DESIGUAL

La vida es chula!

At the young age of 20 Swiss businessman Thomas Meyer envisioned a future in which people dressed differently, in clothes that made them feel good and that were affordable for all budgets. This dream gave shape to Desigual, which opened its doors in 1984.

Ever since the brand’s vibrant, passionate and colourful Mediterranean philosophy has inspired our products and work culture and has developed into the company’s rallying cry: La Vida es Chula!

Headquarters in Barcelona.

We respect differences. We listen to others’ opinions. We share our good mood. We’re enthusiastic. We create with an open mind. We love what we do. We explore new territories constantly and at the same time, we aspire to sustained, sustainable and profitable growth. We opened offices in New York’s Midtown in 2009 and took steps towards our goal of expanding into new markets in Asia by opening offices in Hong Kong and Tokio in 2012. In June 2013 we officially inaugurated our new beachfront headquarters in Barcelona, a 24,000 m2 building.

A global company

Our multi-channel distribution system enables us to work as a global company. Internationalisation and innovation are our two main paths of growth.

They love us at El Corte Inglés, Coin, Galeries Lafayette, Isetan, Takashimaya, Kaufhof, Macy’s, The Bay, Palacio del Hierro and Tangs... the most prestigious department stores in the world.

A world of experiences

Each store must be a positive experience for our customers, a dose of happiness for the soul. We work with light to create spaces full of imagination where garments are lit to create alternative worlds that makes shopping an authentic pleasure.

For everybody

A garment in every wardrobe

You. A word that means everything to us. You are the beginning and the end of everything we do. You, just as you are. And just like the lovers of differences that we are, we enjoy creating products for all types of people with the dream of putting at least one Desigual item into every wardrobe in the world.

Made ￼with love

From concept to materialisation.

￼￼￼￼￼￼￼￼Made with Love means scouring the jungle for flowers to print on a dress; it means to try, try and try again until finding that perfect pattern that enhances a woman’s hips; it means stamping “Made in Spain” on every single one of our shoes...Made with Love means taking care every detail and each of the manufacturing processes used to make our garments, relying on the latest technologies and the best suppliers in India, China and Europe.

Excellence ￼￼in logistics￼We’re capable of delivering up to 120,000 garments in a day and managing up to 3,000,000 in our automated warehouse at Gavá that can process 5,000 orders simultaneously.

We can deliver our products within 24 hours. Everything we need to be always close to ensure that customers receive their orders as quickly as possible.

We have extended our logistics network with two new distribution centres in USA (New Jersey) and Asia (Hong Kong) to provide even better service to the North American and Asian markets. We are building a new distribution centre in Barcelona (Vildadecans), which in its first phase will enable us to increase our logistics capacity to 55 million garments.

The ICIL Foundation presented with its 2009 award for Excellence in Logistics. In 2010, the Spanish Logistics Centre (CEL) recognised our progress and innovation in logistics with its CEL Company, CEL University and CEL Manager awards. We were awarded second prize in the CEL Company category for the successful implementation of our automation project at our Gavà logistics plant.
